Jewel has posted a video in support of the ‘It Gets Better’ project, where the singer songwriter talked about her first crush being with a guy in high school who was gay, and how a friend told her he wouldn’t be her friend if she remained friends with a gay friend. “It breaks my heart that anybody would want to take their own life for how they are,” Jewel said. “It’s totally fine. It’s okay to be exactly how you are.” Watch the message via YouTube below.
